Abstract

See full text

An apparatus and method for power control in a cellular basestation transmitter with multiple digital carrier channels. Each digital carrier signal is attenuated by a digital power control circuit under the control of a microcontroller, the amount of attenuation varying according to the number of active channels. The attenuated digital signals are combined and converted to an analog signal by a digital to analog converter, and the analog signal is amplified by an analog power control circuit also under control of the microcontroller. The combined digital signal may be clipped to reduce the signal peaks, the amount of clipping varying according to the number of active channels.
